Howdy all,

I decided to rebuild my kernel.

Everything goes fine until I issue the make modules_install:

   make -C  arch/i386/mm modules_install
   make[1]: Entering directory 
`/usr/src/linux-2.4.19-gentoo-r9/arch/i386/mm'
   make[1]: Nothing to be done for `modules_install'.
   make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.19-gentoo-r9/arch/i386/mm'
   make -C  arch/i386/lib modules_install
   make[1]: Entering directory
`/usr/src/linux-2.4.19-gentoo-r9/arch/i386/lib'
   make[1]: Nothing to be done for `modules_install'.
   make[1]: Leaving directory 
`/usr/src/linux-2.4.19-gentoo-r9/arch/i386/lib'
   cd /lib/modules/2.4.19-gentoo-r9; \
   mkdir -p pcmcia; \
   find kernel -path '*/pcmcia/*' -name '*.o' | xargs -i -r ln -sf ../{}
pcmcia
   if [ -r System.map ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F System.map
2.4.19-gentoo-r9; fi
   depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in
/lib/modules/2.4.19-gentoo-r9/video/NVdriver
   depmod:     _mmx_memcpy_Rsmp_15670e2d

I'm confused.  What do my Nvidia drivers have to do installing kernel
modules?

I have a GeForce3 which I emerged the drivers for a while ago, but
there's no Nvida option in the kernel config.
Thankfully, I can still boot into my old kernel, but I'm missing some
modules now, such as NT filesystem and such.

Anyone help?

Thanks,
Elam
